The Love, Pamela author stood by her claim during a recent interview, remarking that she couldn't have made up such a story.
She also mentioned that Allen's denial of the accusation was due to the current era where he could quickly get canceled for such an act.

'You Can't Make That Stuff Up'
Speaking with ET Canada, Anderson asserted that Allen really flashed his penis at her during their time on the "Home Improvement" set.
The actress had first spoken about the incident in her excerpt from her released memoir, Love, Pamela. Days after the excerpt went viral, Allen refuted the allegations in a separate interview with Insider, saying at the time, "No, it never happened. I would never do such a thing."
On the issue, Anderson told ET that it was impossible to make up such a story to back up her claims that it really happened. However, she admitted that Allen denying the allegation was not surprising, seemingly referencing that he could get canceled if he had chosen to own up.
"You can't make that stuff up. He has to deny it because look at the times we're in. If he said, 'Oh yeah, I did that…' he'd be..." Anderson told the publication, while seemingly referring to the #MeToo movement, per Insider.
Pamela Anderson Narrated The Alleged Flashing Incident Again
During her interview, she once again recounted how it all happened, detailing it almost in the same way as it was penned in her memoir.
"It was the first day of filming, and I was in my dressing room, and I came out, and then he came out of his dressing room, and he had this robe on," the actress recalled.
She then remarked that he briefly opened his robe to flaunt his member before closing up. She also claimed that he made a statement that appeared to reference her modeling stint with Playboy.
"'Now we're even — I've seen you naked, you've seen me naked. Now we can start the show,'" Anderson recounted the lewd remark her former colleague allegedly made at the time before adding, "How could you make that up?"
Anderson further remarked: "Then he ran back into his room, and he was embarrassed all day and acting like a little giddy schoolboy. I was like, 'OK.'"
Pamela Anderson Defended Tim Allen's Alleged Flashing Act
Anderson previously defended Allen's alleged act of flashing his junk at her. At the time, she told Variety that she was sure Allen meant no harm, also pointing out that his comedic personality might have spurred him to do so
"Tim is a comedian, it's his job to cross the line. I'm sure he had no bad intentions," Anderson said to the publication.
Similar to her ET interview, she also emphasized that such an occurrence would never have occurred in the present, when sexual harassment claims are being treated with greater seriousness.
"Times have changed, though," she added. "I doubt anyone would try that post #MeToo. It's a new world."
Pamela Anderson Says She Was Unable To Tell Her Children About Her Past
Alongside the release of her memoir, Anderson also debuted her Netflix documentary "Pamela: A Love Story," which focused on her story, touching on details about her modeling career and her viral sex tape.
In a scene in the documentary, she discussed that she never considered how "embarrassing" being a model for Playboy would tell on her children, Brandon and Dylan, whom she shares with her ex Tommy Lee.
She said, per Daily Mail, "I wasn't thinking when I was in Playboy that I was going to have kids soon and they were gonna grow up, and it was gonna be embarrassing for them."
The "Baywatch" star also said she never got the chance to tell the kids about her past herself, as they gleaned the information from other sources.
She added, "But I always thought I'd tell them, age-appropriate - but I never got the chance - they always found out before I could really talk to them about it."
